This is a “live” episode, recorded on the Bellewaarde Ridge near Ypres. We discover, through the eyes of the soldiers on both sides of the wire, what happened here in June 1915 in a small, often forgotten action. We hear about the German medic who wrote to a dead British soldier’s family long after the war, and the photographer who took a famous photo in the German front line. And we discover the German soldier who was to become a leading player in the Holocaust a generation later.
